| Reverse description | Two tunnies (Atlantic bluefin tuna) swim leftward in parallel registers, one above the other, flanking a central rectangular cartouche enclosing a neo-Punic inscription reading MP'L SKS. A stylised Phoenician letter aleph appears above the cartouche, while a crescent symbol is placed below it, all within an unadorned field. The design alludes directly to the economic foundation of Sexi, a celebrated Phoenician colonial settlement on the Iberian coast renowned throughout antiquity for its fish-salting and garum-production industries. |
